Military Service of BTS Members: Date of enlistment and discharge
As of September 2024, all members of BTS are serving in the military, which is a topic of great interest to fans around the world.
I often see V in Korea. In Korea, all men have to fulfill their military service obligations, so many of them hear V’s story through friends or younger brothers who serve in the same unit in Chuncheon as V, and they are said to serve in the military very hard and faithfully.
In any case, with BTS members’ mandatory military service under way, many people want to know the date of each member’s enlistment and discharge. This blog post provides detailed information about their military service, their current situation, and what fans can expect going forward.

Jimin and Jungkook
Jimin and Jungkook are also receiving similar training as RM and V at the Korea Army Training Center. Their dedication and hard work were evident along the way.
SUGA
Unlike other members who join the military, Suga is doing his social service duty by commuting from Seoul. Not long ago, he attended the prosecution for drunk driving. That’s why there are rumors that BTS will be disbanded. I hope it ends well.
media appearance
The media is closely tracking the military service of BTS members. In particular, V is often in the news for his involvement in special forces under the Capital Defense Command. Not long ago, he was seen saying hello to a senior singer whether he had done security work at another singer’s concert.
Fan Reaction
BTS ARMY has been constantly supporting all the members throughout their military service. The social media platform was flooded with messages of encouragement and praise. Fans have shown pride in the members’ dedication and are eagerly waiting for their return.
Future plans
Expectations are high for BTS’s reunion, and fans are eagerly anticipating BTS’s return to the music scene. BTS’s reunion is expected to be a significant event for 컴백’s comeback after completing mandatory military service. All members will be discharged from the military in June 2025, with Suga’s last scheduled to finish his service.
conclusion
BTS’s military service is a duty that all men in Korea must fulfill. So their military service seems natural in a way, but considering their status, it’s a little disappointing. It’s a shame that if the National Assembly had paid a little attention, they could have been exempted from the military.
In any case, the more you continue to serve in the military, the greater the expectations for BTS’s reunion. Fans will be able to create an unforgettable moment looking forward to seeing BTS again in 2025.
